Data breaches are up 58 percent in the first half of the year and are on a record-setting pace. Herb Weisbaum, a Consumers' Checkbook contributing editor, discusses how to safeguard your online accounts.

Data Breaches Skyrocket; Here's How to Safeguard Your Online Accounts

Welcome back to the Identity Theft Resource Center’s Weekly Breach Breakdown – supported by Sentilink – and I’m James Lee, the ITRC’s COO. This is the episode for August 16th, 2024. Each week on this podcast, we look at the most recent events and trends related to data security and privacy.

Long-time followers know that I am a fan of Shakespeare. When we started this podcast about five years ago, one of the very first episodes was entitled A Breach by Any Other Name in honor of the quote from Romeo & Juliet: “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
